It’s finally the time families have been dreading – back to school for children across the state. Here’s three ways to make going back to school or enjoying the return to school.
1. Make lunchtime fun
Cut sandwiches in fun shapes like dinosaurs or teddy bears or simply inject some colour into your kids’ lunchboxes to make eating an enjoyable time to look forward to.
2. Make goals for the year ahead
If your children know what they want to achieve, they will be more motivated to start taking steps towards those goals. Make sure there is a mix of fun and academic goals, including making five new friends or learning 10 new words in the first week.
3. Decorate their backpack
Half of the fun of school is helping your children discover their true colours. Buy some fun stickers from a movie or show they like and get decorating!
